For this case we must solve the following equation:

$\frac {x} {4} + 2 = -12$

Subtracting 2 from both sides of the equation we have:

$\frac {x} {4} = - 12-2$

Equal signs are added and the same sign is placed.

$\frac {x} {4} = - 14$

Multiplying by 4 on both sides of the equation we have:

$x = -14 * 4\\x = -56$

Thus, the solution of the equation is
x = -56
